Equipment
- 1 teaspoon
Ingredients
- 1 kiwi
Instructions
- Set the kiwi on a cutting board and cut off both ends with a paring knife to create 2 flat ends.
- Take the spoon in one hand and the kiwi in the other and carefully slide the spoon just inside the hairy peel. Work the spoon around the skin until the green fruit is completely separated from the peel.
- Cut the fruit into thin slices and enjoy!
Notes
- To turn the kiwi into a "kiwi cup": chop the kiwi in half with a paring knife through the fattest part. Take 1 half and scoop out pieces with a spoon and eat. So easy!
- Kiwi are quite juicy so make sure you use a cutting board to keep the juices from running wild.
- There is a white center of a kiwifruit that looks like a core, yet it's edible. Feel free to toss kiwi into smoothies, smoothie bowls or just into your mouth.
